Why Choose the Mersen T087026 MI5SA25V8 Semiconductor Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen T087026 (MI5SA25V8) is a compact 5 × 20 mm semiconductor miniature fuse designed to provide reliable overcurrent protection for sensitive electronic components and control equipment. Part of the Mersen SA/SB 125–250 V miniature fuse range, it features a medium time-lag characteristic that protects circuits while tolerating brief start-up and inrush currents.
With a rated current of 8 A and an IEC rated voltage of 250 V AC, the T087026 is suitable for semiconductor devices, industrial electronics, control apparatus and power supply circuits. Its SA operating characteristic helps prevent nuisance fuse operation during acceptable short-duration current surges while disconnecting sustained overloads and short circuits.
The fuse features a durable ceramic body, ferrule terminals and a clip-mounted cartridge design. A minimum interrupting rating of 10 kA provides dependable fault interruption, while the compact dimensions allow straightforward installation within compatible fuse holders and electronic assemblies.
